When buying a "catch can" make sure it has baffles in it as some are sold with nothing inside to "catch" the oil, and therefore you would be better leaving it "stock" as it would do nearly the same thing.

Catch cans being legal or not is basically up to the police officers discretion. So if are worried about it make sure it is plumbed back to the intake, therefore you can dispute the fact it is only inline with the original plumbing and therefore it is actually reducing pollution as it is catching the oil instead of burning it.

Also you could put it behind the front bumper, or make one to hide behind the stock air intake, there are a few options.

Sorry just another question..

I'm going for the D1 spec catch can but not sure if I should go 9mm fittings or the 15mm fittings?

Going in an rb20det - 171kw

measure your rocker cover outlets and get the catch can closest to that (probably 15mm tho)

Okay guys, I bought this catch can yesterday. post-105232-13850785381525_thumb.jpg

I have rung around f**king everywhere.

Autobarn, bursons, supercheap, buntings, Clark rubber and heaps of others..

NO ONE can find me a 15mm black hose for the catch can..

Let alone the 27mm hose I need to plumb my blow off valve back.. :(

They can't even give me any references..

I really want to drive my car back home tonight!

Cheers for that man, don't suppose you know any places that will have those 1 inch hoses in stock..?

Don't know. The Mackay guys were talking about some stuff from this place and then I saw that they do hoses so thought that it might help. Haven't used them so not sure.

I have called so many places its not even funny.. This sucks haha I want to drive my caaaaaar!! Got my opens 2 weeks ago lol :(

I should of planned a bit ahead... But wouldn't think it would be this hard to find a god damn hose! Haha

Have you tried Bursons? If you just ask them for a roll of 15mm hose or a 1m length they ca Usualy do it

Yes, called Bursons.. 15mm I'm not worried about. They have that there. But I can drive my car with out a catch can. :P

Sorry, I've changed the subject a little..

I need one for my BOV around 27mm inside diameter.. That won't f**king kink when I bend it 180 degree OR find one with a 180 bend already..

Already checked radiator hoses at a heap of shops all too big & too small, nothing that actually fits alright..

It's probably really common, I'm just speaking to the wrong places?

    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay ย 
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.ย  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
    • Is this not just about people wrecking, and storing, multiple cars in their front yard? I now a tow truck driver that was contracted by the council to clean up housing commission front and rear yards in houses and unit car parks I'm all for working on, and doing maintenance on your car in your garage or driveway, but some people definitely take the pissย  There's one house locally to me that I walk past regularly where the front yard and driveway looks like a wreckers, multiple cars in various stages of being stripped, and the yard looks like all of fluids are basically dumped on the ground I may be wrong, but it seems that the initial reports, which I've seen nothing actually official about yet, may be getting taken out of context, like alot of the latest "the sky is falling" stuff found on the youtubes for clicks
    • have they? Link appreciated. I live in Casey. I can see both sides of the argument in this case. There's a lot of sketchy stuff going on. There needs to be a clear definition of what this is supposed to be IMO. I wager the intent was to be a broad sweeping brush against people who have 4 cars up on blocks on their front lawn, not someone who services their own car behind their own gate on a weekend bothering probably nobody. But it'd be hard to legislate the difference there.
    • Oh, the wheels were already off. I wouldn't normally take them off to clean them although it does make it easier with the ceramic, so I might take them off when reapplying. I don't drive much but now with the ceramic coat, when I do drive and they get dirty I can get most off with the pressure washer. I'll be switching to dirtier pads soon which was the motivation for the ceramic as I usually just clean them and sometimes use Autoglym wheel protector. Nah, f**k the barrels! Haha, I'll give them a quick scrub when they're off the car and a pressure wash, but even I draw the line with the barrels. Yes, dark coloured wheels allow you to get away with a lot! ย
